Story
My dad had purchased Chief from a neighbor when Chief was (6) weeks old. My dad had enjoyed taking Chief on walks around the block, watching Chief run freely inside the yard, and even simply enjoyed the times when Chief simply sat or lay at my dad's feet watching television as if he was actually watching. Chief is a healthy, cheerful, and energetic companion whom we regret that my dad is no longer able to care for due to my dad's medical condition.

Story
  And along comes Mary, the sweetest Doberman girl you will ever meet.   This girl is barely one year old and weighs no more than 45 pounds with a little more healthy weight to add to her previously starved body.   Coming to Critter Cavalry Rescue as a stray that was taken to a Tennessee shelter, she stood out with her sweet eyes that just begged you to love her.  She has no problems with other dogs big or small, but she does like to chase the cats and they are stressed about this.  We are changing her current home to one with no cats and waiting for a family who will nurture her body and soul.  She is crate trained, housebroken and has a beautiful spirit that wants to please and love you.  Mary the Doberman is ALL LOVE for her humans and will be a 55 girl when at her optimum weight in the next few months.    She has no character flaws and is a bright and loving girl that will curl up with you to watch the world go by and to make your life sweeter.  We are looking for a fenced yard in her new home.  Please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com if you are interested and can provide the best home possible for the best girl that deserves a richer life        PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comDecember 22, 2025, 7:02 pm

Sadie makes sure you know she’s around with a few enthusiastic barks. In her foster home, she’s proven to be a polite apartment pup.

Sweet, affectionate, and full of personality, Sadie has the perfect balance of energy and snuggles. She loves people, adores belly rubs, and makes a wonderful work-from-home companion, often resting her head on your lap between Zoom calls. With her spark of spunk, occasional zoomies, and loving nature, Sadie’s ready to bring joy, adventure, and cuddles to her forever home.

Story
Hi! I’m Commander, a Doberman mix and probably a little part unicorn. My birthday is probably sometime in January 2025 (thanks for asking, my favorite cake flavor is steak!). That makes me about 10 months old and 72 pounds of pure snuggle power. People are my favorite! Attention is my favorite! Hugs are my favorite! (Basically, if it involves love, I’m in.) My rescue coordinator calls me “Mister Let-Me-Hug-You". I’m a playful, goofy guy who’s still learning what to do with these extra-long legs, sometimes they forget they’re on the same team. I want nothing more than to be close to my people and soak up all the love they can give. I’m also a very strong boy who needs a confident, committed human to help me keep working on my leash manners. Right now, I’m fully convinced every walk is my big audition for a professional sled dog team. With patience and consistency, I’ll get the hang of it, I just have a little ways to go before I’m a “loose-leash” walker. Food is my love language. I’m playful, affectionate, goofy, and still figuring out where my long legs are supposed to go sometimes. Basically, I’m one big lovable jumble of joy who just needs a foster home (or adopter! please!) to continue helping me grow into my best self. If you’ve been dreaming of a happy, huggable, slightly uncoordinated adventure buddy, I’m your guy. No cats for me, thank you. I maybe able to live in an apartment but my tail alone will destroy every article you hold dear that is in proximity of my tail. I’m good with children, but I do love to hug, and at 72 pounds, I might accidentally knock them down. Dog parks aren’t my scene. I can be a bit overwhelming for some dogs, and my size can make others nervous. You don’t need a yard for me to be happy, though! Just common sense, regular walks, and maybe a pup cup or two. Professional training would be awesome for me, it’ll set us both up for success. Apply to foster or adopt me! https://tinyurl.com/TLCdogapp Foster radius: 20 miles from 20906 Adoption radius: 60 miles from 20906 My petfinder for more pics https://www.petfinder.com/dog/commander-0caeb313-4b9e-4e2a-94b0-1b0480bb592d/md/silver-spring/tascas-love-cooperative-inc-md511/details/ We don’t promote any of our dogs as house trained or allergy friendly.

Story
Sweet Pete—lovingly called Sweets—will be 3 years old in March, and he’s quietly hoping his next home will be the one where he finally feels safe enough to exhale. This 12-pound, neutered, crate-trained little guy came to CCR not because he isn’t loved, but because he needs more security, consistency, and reassurance than he’s had before. What he wants most is a calm, stable home and a person who will be his. Once Sweet Pete trusts you, he gives his whole heart. He lives for cuddles, snuggling close, and simply being near his person after a good round of outdoor play. He enjoys exercise and then happily settles in, content just to hang out and be loved. He’s also a wonderful travel companion—great on short trips and long rides alike—and never turns down a pup cup along the way. Sweet Pete will alert bark at unfamiliar noises or strangers, but he isn’t a constant yapper. He walks nicely on a leash and would benefit from continued work on recall. He’s spent lots of time at doggy daycare and enjoys playful interactions with dogs his own size. He hasn’t been around cats yet, so a cat-free home or careful introductions would be best. Because of his past, Sweet Pete can be anxious around men and small children, and those situations can feel overwhelming for him. He would truly thrive in a quieter, adult-only home—ideally with someone who is home often—where patience, routine, and kindness help him continue to build confidence. When he feels safe and happy, his joy bursts out in the form of full-speed zoomies and impressive jumps that show off his athletic little body and happy heart. Sweet Pete is up to date on vaccinations and ready for a fresh start. He’s not asking for much—just a gentle, understanding home where love is steady and trust can grow. In return, he’ll offer deep devotion, endless affection, and the kind of bond that makes all the waiting worth it.  Please email Critter Cavalry Rescue is you are interested.  Let us know where you live!  We are in Tennessee but we adopt outside the state as well and transport.   Contact us at ccrtennessee@gmail.com PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comDecember 20, 2025, 12:12 am

Please contact Mamie Hall (mamie.hall@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.She's the cherry on top! CHERRY NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!   Come meet Cherry and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (10/19) from 12-3 pm at the PetSmart in Falls Church, VA (6100A Arlington Blvd, Falls Church, VA 22044)!     Name: Cherry         Best Guess for Breed:  Min pin mix  Best Guess for Age: 6 years as of October 2024       SEX: Female   Approximate Weight: 12 lbs   Gets Along With:   Large dogs! She hasn't lived with cats that we know of, but she has tried to chase outdoor cats. She hasn't lived with kids as far as we are aware. We are happy to discuss integration techniques with potential adopters!   Currently Living at:   DC foster home   About Cherry: This sweetie with the incredible ears was abandoned and ended up in a shelter in Texas. She immediately closed that chapter with a bang and eagerly jumped into her next one - a shelter foster home in Texas. Her Texas foster described her as energetic, always liking to move around -  hey she may be 6 or so but small dogs' batteries last a LONG time and she's ready to go! She loves walks, loves car rides. She lived with a 80-pound poodle in that foster home and did well with him. She knows the command 'come' and when called, will come right away.   And she was just so loving, so happy to be with her Texas foster. Her foster said she's the type who does well with a lot of attention, a lot of time with her humans.  What she wants most of all is to be safe and loved for all her days. In exchange, you get a happy, loving, active little girl eager to trot by your side and then curl up against your lap. What do you say? Is Cherry the one for your home and your heart? What My DC Area Foster Says About Me:  Cherry loves walks - really LOVES walks and sniffing. But she can chill too - she's curled up on a dog bed at my feet as I type this. She's confident in the home - she walked in like she'd been here all her life. And she utterly loves being next to me, getting pets.  Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.  TO ADOPT:      The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and transport from the shelter.
